New York state’s new budget deal grants Mayor Bill de Blasio his wish for a three-year extension of control over New York City schools, but some education advocates said Monday that parents should have been given more power.
The deal tweaks the system by adding one parent representative and one additional mayoral appointee to the Panel for Educational Policy, which votes on contracts, school closures and major changes in the use of district buildings.
Stupid Hurts education
Thank God my child is 15 months old
Well, that should work out well for the children of New York City given the stellar performance of the System so far. So sorry to hear of your continued troubles.
Crime is rampant in New York and largely committed by school children. DiBlasio as mayor is deplorable and he is running the schools.
